Watch The Message

In this kingdom, we rise upon the strength of the light that we have. Genesis 1:5 KJV, Psalm 30:5 KJV

Mark 4:35 KJV
If you don’t understand the other side of faith, you will not be standing on a very strong foundation.

1. The end of the believer’s journey with God is that you eventually become a manifestation of the glory of God. This is God’s goal behind his dealing with all believers regardless of your assignment regardless of your background.Romans 8:18-19 KJV, 2 Corinthians 3:2 KJV, Ephesians 2:10 KJV, Galatians 1:24 KJV, Ephesians 3:10 KJV, John 17:1 KJV, John 15:8 KJV, John 15:16 KJV
2. Our walk with God and our exploits in the kingdom will always demand partnership with the realm of the spirit. The spirit and the Bride say come.
   Matthew 6:9-13 KJV, Hebrews 11:3 KJV, John 1:3 KJV, James 2:26 KJV, Habakkuk 2:4 KJV, Romans 1:17 KJV, Galatians 3:11 KJV, Hebrews 10:38 KJV

Psalm 122:1 KJV

What is Faith? Hebrews 11:1 KJV

1. Faith has to do with things. Hebrews 11:1 KJV.
   Faith gives man capacity to obtain things
   The assignments of faith are:
   The first assignment of faith is to deliver desired expectations and to deliver promises that are consistent with the will of God.
2. Faith is a good report. It delivers a testimonial. Hebrews 11:2 KJV.
   In God’s economy, the most superior assignment of faith is a platform for obtaining Good report. What is a good report, a testimonial before God.
   

If faith to you is only about receiving things and desired expectations, there is a side of God you will never experience and there is a side of grace you will never touch. Mark 11:24 KJV, 2 Peter 1:4 KJV

Faith doesn’t stop at (getting) things but your growth in God. Faith doesn’t stop at only obtaining things

Examples of people who obtained good reports in the Bible

1. Abel. Hebrews 11:4 KJV
2. Enoch. Hebrews 11:5 KJV
3. Noah. Hebrews 11:7 KJV
4. Abraham. Hebrews 11:8 KJV
5. Sarah. Hebrews 11:11 KJV
6. Hebrews 11:32-39 KJV

The character of faith is:

1. The testimony of knowing and trusting God through the Journey is more superior to the desires obtained in the journey. Your journey with God is more important than your receiving.
2. Any faith journey should leave you knowing and trusting God better even more than the results you obtain.

There is faith as a school, there is faith as a journey that helps you know God in his various dimensions. 2 Timothy 1:12 KJV

A man that has a testimony with God is not embarrassed whether RESULTS COME OR NOT because he has obtained a nobler part. For such people, results always happen eventually. Ephesians 1:3 KJV.

Your entire spiritual journey with God should give God a name that generations will refer to. GOD HAS NOT STOPPED BEING NAMED. Psalm 27:1 KJV, Job 13:15 KJV, Job 42:10 KJV

Things will always happen when the track record is established.

For you to really be a CHAMPION IN THE SPIRIT, YOU MUST HAVE BOTH CROWNS AND SCARS. John 3:16 KJV

A transformed you cannot remain in the same condition that met your old self.

Results in the kingdom is with respect to THE WILL OF GOD beyond your desires.

Job 38:1-2 KJV, Genesis 28:10-22 KJV, Genesis 32:22-32 KJV, Galatians 6:17 KJV, Romans 8:28 KJV

The basis of lust is things, the basis of the excelling of temptations over men is their passion for things. James 4:2 KJV

Job 42:10-11 KJV, Micah 7:8 KJV, Psalm 115:16 KJV

There are 4 elements of dominion according to Psalm 24 KJV:

1. The Earth (Land)
2. The Fullness the Resources on the Earth. Job 28:5 KJV, Ecclesiastes 5:9 KJV
3. The Mindset that governs the cosmos
4. The Inhabitants

When God wants to give a man true dominion, he connects you to have authority across these 4 areas. 1 Corinthians 3:21 KJV, Matthew 16:26 KJV

Gaining in the cosmos is transactional, it will always be at the expense of your soul. You can know a man who has been blessed by God because he prospers even as his soul prospers.
